Very Nice for the price

The hotel was very nice it was not close to the beach but it was close to shopping and dining. The beach drive was only about 20 to 30 min away. The price was very reasonable. Had a great stay!

Great Location

Great location right across bridge from orange park kennel club. Average room with nice bed. Was surprised to find that hotel has a comedy room which offers live stand up, as well as nice dinning and bar. Not bad for the price. Close to plenty of stores and dinning.

Disappointed

Upon arrival, I asked to be placed in the empty room next to my sister's family and was told that it wasn't possible. The clerk was borderline rude. The pool was dirty, the bathroom was nasty, and I was glad to check out one day ahead of schedule. I was charged for two days even though the reason I left early was a tropical stoerm had cancelled the event we came to Jax for. Next time I do more research on the hotel from multiple sources.

Enjoyed stay! But Cut short....

Reserved this hotel when visiting for Jacksonville Jazz Fest and trip to Daytona, wanted to be close to Festival and within an hour of Daytona Beach. The hotel service and staff were wonderful, hotel room was clean. Gigi's seafood buffet was the bomb!! And the full breakfast bar included in stay was a big plus compared to other places we've stayed. However, we had to cut our trip a day short due to Tropical storm Beryl, and did not get the chance to enjoy the on-site comedy club. Overall eveything was wonderful! Will definitely recommend and go back in the future!

Jacksonville Lodging

The hotel was a good choice for the price. We had 3 breakfast coupons for each day;but we only took advantage of the first day ,as we would not use the free breakfast perks as the food was below our standards.
